1.3 Panthera Facility Detailed Description

Panthera has provided training to Department of Defense, Special Operations and Federal Agency customers,
including the DEA, over the past three years that is nearly identical to the broad DRC training requirements of off-
road driving training, medical training, land navigation, explosives awareness, and basic outdoor survival skills as
set forth in the PWS. The training center is located in the D.C. National Capital Region, and within 150 driving
miles of the DEA Training Academy at Quantico, VA. Panthera’s multiple and varied driving tracks/venues,

numerous classrooms and unique firearms ranges/venues, far exceed the facility requirements outlined in the DEA

PWS.

1.3.1 Driving Tracks. The training site comprises multiple driving courses, inclduing paved and unpaved multi-

lane road conditions. The 20+ miles of driving venues utilized in training are described below in greater detail

e 5.5 miles of onsite gravel roads available for motorcade, ambush, convoy and surveillance detection training

e 12 miles of off-road trails weaving throughout the mountainous terrain, with natural and man-made obstacles,

steep grades and descents, and areas for vehicle recovery / extraction, or ambush scenarios

After each driving training evolution, in accordance with our Quality Management System (QMS) and safety
procedures, the venues are inspected for debris and are cleaned to reduce the risk of accidents or foreign object
damage (FOD) to students or the vehicles, and to ensure the highest operational availability of the venue for

subsequent classes, with a minimum of downtime between classes.

J. Description of Training: Provided high-risk driving (sedans, SUVs, armored vehicles), ambush attack and urban
scenario training for 38-42 DEA agents and support staff per class, who are deploying to high threat areas around the world.

We tailored the pace of training based on whether agents, support personnel or a combination of the two groups arrived for
the class, to ensure each student was challenged, but not overwhelmed, to reduce not only the risk of injury, but the risk of

not meeting the training objectives.

Panthera was responsible for all program of instruction (POJ) design, training facilities, and instruction for driving training.
We have performed 7 iterations of this course since contract award and trained over 280 students.

Operationally, Tactical Driving training included sedans, SUVs and armored SUVs, on improved, unimproved and off-road
road surfaces. We taught vehicle dynamics and driving in hostile environments and ambush scenarios, driver down drills,
off-road and trail recovery techniques, individual attack scenarios, checkpoint scenarios, threat recognition, Pursuit
Intervention Techniques (PIT) and ramming recovery drills. We also conducted an IED Awareness class, including
classroom and actual explosives demonstrations, enabling the students to experience makeshift-IED blasts in real time.

After each driving or IED evolution, Panthera employees reset, clean, and re-supply the training venues for safety, to

Example #1: DEA — Personnel Recovery and Emergency Preparedness (PREP)

Testimonial— Jared Johnson, Unit Chief, DEA Personnel Recovery Unit, DEA — March 2019

“Since September 2018, Panthera Training LLC has supported five PREP courses, each consisting of 42 students.
Panthera has not only met all contractual requirements, but have gone above and beyond to ensure each student is
provided the best training, in the best environment possible, Panthera’s staff have been nothing short of
accommodating and supportive to ensure each course is a success. Panthera’s training venue offers a wide range of
training options, limited only to the client’s imagination. The Prep course consists of both DEA Special Agents and
support staff, which can cause some unique training challenges, as everyone does not possess the same level of
training. Panthera’s instructors have done an outstanding job ensuring all the students obtain the required skills and
encourage students to perform at a level many of the students may not have recognized they were capable of.
During the PREP course, I have personally had students approach me and comment about the high level of training
en and the professionalism of the Panthera instructors and staff.”

J. Description of Training: Provided high-risk driving, shooting, land navigation, ambush attack and urban scenario
training to MARSOC operators deploying to high threat areas, with class sizes ranging from 6-36 students. We tailored the
pace of training to ensure each soldier was challenged, but not overwhelmed, to reduce not only the risk of injury, but the
risk of not meeting the training objectives.

Panthera was responsible for all program of instruction (POD) design, training facilities, and instruction. We have performed
10 iterations of this course since contract award and trained over 270 students.

Operationally, Tactical Shooting training included tactical pistol shooting, tactical rifle shooting and night fire
familiarization. Tactical Driving training included sedans and SUVs on improved, unimproved and off-road road surfaces.
We taught vehicle dynamics and driving in hostile environments and ambush scenarios, driver down drills, off-road and trail
recovery techniques, individual attack scenarios, check point scenarios, threat recognition, Pursuit Intervention Techniques
(PIT) and ramming recovery drills. We ensure we have sufficient instructors and role players as “opposing forces” to
provide realistic ambush and attack scenarios,

Panthera employees then reset, clean, re-supply the training venues between runs for safety, to minimize risk to personnel /
equipment, and minimize downtime between nuns.

2.3 Instructors and Instructor Qualifications

Our Instructor Cadre has a wide breadth of knowledge and training experience in firearms, tactical and
defensive driving, land navigation, survival, foreign internal defense, border security, disaster response,
counterterrorism, surveillance and detection, and crowd control. Our instructors have either a U.S. military or

special operations background, or a law enforcement background in a federal agency that works closely with the

U.S. military (e.g., State Department, CIA, FBI, DEA).

Panthera’s instructors possess prior training experience and have demonstrated the ability to provide the
instruction required under Section 3.3 Task/Work Requirements of the DEA Statement of Work. All our driving
instructors have at least a minimum of two years instructional experience instructing technical driver training to
both federal law enforcement and military special operations. Panthera’s IED/demolition instructor has a
minimum of five years of military demolition/breaching experience and a minimum of 2 years of instructional
experience instructing federal law enforcement and or military special operations in demolition/breaching
techniques.

We maintain a core group of approximately 30 instructors that we task regularly for training classes, with
another secondary group of approximately 20 instructors that we can task intermittently, with 10-15 days’ notice,
to instruct larger classes, or to provide specialized training (e.g., explosives/IEDs, breaching, mountaneering/lead
climber/high angle rescue, medical, long range shooting, etc.).

Once we identify potential instructors, we then screen, hire, train, and continuously monitor their progress.
Our HR staff reviews each application for completeness, job history, technical training and skills, certifications and
licenses, past-experience, and health. Following an initial telephone interview, we verify and check information on
their background and references. Before hiring a potential Instructor Candidate, we invite them to a full-day
interview on-site at the training center.

Upon hiring, the Instructor Candidate attends an intensive 5-day vetting/training course where he/she learns
Panthera’s Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs). Part of the 5-day course is our comprehensive Panthera Driving
Assessment, because of the unique characteristics and safety considerations for driving training. The Canadidate is
continually assessed by Panthera’s Lead Instructors and management staff during the course to ensure the Candidate
is a good fit for Panthera’s training team before they can teach a class and or have any contact with students. The
Candidate then operates as an Intructor Under Instruction (UD) of a Panthera Certified Instructor, assisting in
teaching the class for at least five (5) iterations. Before becoming a “Certified Panthera Instructor”, the Candidate
must be approved by a Panthera Instructor Review Board.

Our most recent Driving Assessment was conducted in February 2019, for 9 candidates (with only four
passing). The course covers all aspects of on-road, off-road and unimproved road driving and instructional skills,
with an additional emphasis on attack and ambush scenarios for single vehicles, convoys or motorcades. The course
was initially modeled on the Department of State instructor requirements for their driving, but has been modified
over several years to incorporate additional military and State Department requirements for tactical and defensive
driving. We continuously improve the course based on lessons learned from real-world events and after actions
reporting.

We maintain an instructor certification database comprising: (i) a listing of each instructor; (ii) the training

topics they are qualified to teach; (iii) any certifications required for the topics; and (iv) the frequency of any

maintain their currencies within all their fields of competency. Driving credentials are certified quarterly. We
sponsor our instructors for other professional certifications, especially firearms or driving related. The general
instructor qualifications are below:
e A minimum 10 years’ experience in instructional and/or operational experience within Department of
Defense (DoD) or Special Operations and at least five years OCONUS experience in DoD and/or Special
Operations.

e Lead instructors are High Risk Training Certified, and all Instructors are certified Range Safety Officers

Annually certified im Organizational Risk Management and Sexual Harassment Training

Passed a National Crime Information Center certified records check

Have documentation that shows compliance with the Lautenberg Amendment to the Gun Control Act.

Have on file a copy of a DD-214 or Law Enforcement certificate showing experience.

3.0 Summary

Panthera welcomes the opportunity to conduct the Disaster Readiness Course in support of the DEA.
Panthera has provided training to Department of Defense, Special Operations and Federal Agency customers,
including the DEA, over the past three years that is nearly identical to the broad DRC training requirements of off-
road driving training, medical training, land navigation, explosives awareness, and basic outdoor survival skills set
forth in the PWS.

Panthera offers cost-effective, yet custom-tailored training programs addressing mission specific needs not
available from the larger “cookie-cutter” training programs. Based on the wide breadth of training requirements of
our customer base, we have built modifiable yet compatible modules of instruction. These instruction modules are
vigorously validated and continually updated based on the customer’s feedback, instructor input and lessons learned
from current military operations. We are then able to combine these modules within overall courses of instruction,

and tailor as appropriate, to meet a customer’s specific training requirements in a cost-effective manner.

level of our Instructor Cadre, makes this range of training \e /
possible.

Panthera is proud of its safety record, and its adherence to QMS principles. Panthera instructors
provide a daily safety, range and vehicle operations brief prior to the start of all training sessions to ensure
the safety and well-being of all students, instructors, and facility personnel. All training facilities,
weapons, vehicles and equipment are inspected daily to ensure safe training. Panthera’s comprehensive
QMS framework provides quality control for all training evolutions, as well as its administrative, training
support and training center maintenance programs.

Panthera follows a systems approach to training, requiring close interface with customer leadership
and our Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) in course development and execution to ensure our customers
meet their training needs and prepare their personnel to accomplish the mission. It is critical to adhere to
the following principles, with safety and QMS procedures interwoven throughout:

e Mission: Understand and incorporate the DEA’s mission and objectives for the training.

e Student Ability: Panthera administers a pre-course assessment at the start of training to assess the
students’ baseline knowledge and skill level to enable us to prepare and adjust the level and tempo
of the training, with concurrence from the customer, to achieve the training requirements.

e Student Assessment: Panthera provides continual assessment during training including: (i)
observing and documenting daily student participation, (ji) conducting quizzes and exams, and (iii)
completing practical exercises and scenarios to reinforce the training objectives. Panthera follows a
“no student left behind” philosophy and will work to ensure all students master the subject matter.

e Records: Maintain a written record of each phase of instruction to record each student’s proficiency.

e Post-Training Assessment: Conduct post-training assessment and measurement of the students to

and then progress to more challenging and difficult tasks.
Continuous Instructor Feedback: Panthera instructors
will provide "on the spot" verbal feedback to trainees and
conduct repeated drills to correct deficiencies. Panthera
provides additional instruction and/or training venues to
ensure higher skilled students are challenged, and lesser
skilled students are provided remedial instruction or range

Panthera maintains a core group of about 30 instructors that we task regularly for training, with
another secondary group of approximately 20 instructors that we can task intermittently, with 10-15
days’ notice, to instruct larger classes, or to provide specialized training (e.g., explosives/IEDs,
breaching, mountaineering/lead climber/high angle rescue, medical, long range shooting, etc.).

For all Panthera instructors, we have a rigorous screening, hiring, training and monitoring process.
Once we identify a potential instructor, our HR staff reviews each application for completeness, job
history, technical training and skills, certifications and licenses, past-experience, and health. Following
an initial telephone interview, we verify and check information on their background and references. We
then invite them to a full-day interview on-site at the training center.

Upon hiring, the Instructor Candidate attends an intensive 5-day vetting/training course where
he/she learns Panthera’s Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs). Part of the 5-day course is our
comprehensive Panthera Driving Assessment, due to the unique characteristics and safety considerations
for driving training. The Candidate is continually assessed by Panthera’s Lead Instructors and
management staff during the course to ensure the Candidate is a good fit for Panthera’s training team
before they can teach a class and or have any contact with students. The Candidate then operates as an
Instructor Under Instruction (UJ) of a Panthera Certified Instructor, assisting in teaching the class for at
least five (5) iterations. Before becoming a “Certified Panthera Instructor”, the Candidate must be
approved by a Panthera Instructor Review Board.

Our most recent Driving Assessment was conducted in February 2019, for 9 candidates (with only
four passing). The course covers all aspects of on-road, off-road and unimproved road driving and
instructional skills. The course was initially modeled on the Department of State instructor requirements

J. Description of Training: Provided high-risk driving (sedans, SUVs, armored vehicles), ambush attack and urban
scenario training for 38-42 DEA agents and support staff per class, who are deploying to high threat areas around the world.

We tailored the pace of training based on whether agents, support personnel or a combination of the two groups arrived for
the class, to ensure each student was challenged, but not overwhelmed, to reduce not only the risk of injury, but the risk of
not meeting the training objectives. Panthera was responsible for all program of instruction (POD) design, training facilities,
and instruction for driving training. We have executed 8 iterations of this course and trained over 320 students.

Operationally, Tactical Driving training included sedans, SUVs and armored SUVs, on improved, unimproved and off-road
road surfaces. We taught vehicle dynamics and driving in hostile environments and ambush scenarios, driver down drills,
off-road and trail recovery techniques, individual attack scenarios, checkpoint scenarios, threat recognition, Pursuit
Intervention Techniques (PIT) and ramming recovery drills. We also conducted an JED Awareness class, including
classroom and actual explosives demonstrations, enabling the students to experience makeshift-IED blasts in real time.

After each driving or IED evolution, Panthera employees reset, clean, and re-supply the training venues for safety, to
minimize risk to personnel / equipment, and minimize downtime between runs.

—_ Testimonial— Jared Johnson, Unit Chief, DEA Personnel Recovery Unit, DEA — March 2019 \

“Since September 2018, Panthera Training LLC has supported five PREP courses, each consisting of 42 students.
Panthera has not only met all contractual requirements, but have gone above and beyond to ensure each student is
provided the best training, in the best environment possible. Panthera’s staff have been nothing short of
accommodating and supportive to ensure each course is a success. Panthera’s training venue offers a wide range of
training options, limited only to the client’s imagination. The Prep course consists of both DEA Special Agents and
support staff, which can cause some unique training challenges, as everyone does not possess the same level of
training. Panthera’s instructors have done an outstanding job ensuring all the students obtain the required skills and
encourage students to perform at a level many of the students may not have recognized they were capable of.
During the PREP course, I have personally had students approach me and comment about the high level of training
\ Provided and the professionalism of the Panthera instructors and staff.”

Panthera maintains a core group of about 30 instructors that-we task regularly for training, with
another secondary group of approximately 20 instructors that we can task intermittently, with 10-15
days’ notice, to instruct larger classes, or to provide specialized training (e.g., explosives/IEDs,
breaching, mountaineering/lead climber/high angle rescue, medical, long range shooting, etc.).

For all Panthera instructors, we have a rigorous screening, hiring, training and monitoring process.
Once we identify a potential instructor, our HR staff reviews each application for completeness, job
history, technical training and skills, certifications and licenses, past-experience, and health. Following
an initial telephone interview, we verify and check information on their background and references. We
then invite them to a full-day interview on-site at the training center.

Upon hiring, the Instructor Candidate attends an intensive 5-day vetting/training course where
he/she learns Panthera’s Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs). Part of the 5-day course is our
comprehensive Panthera Driving Assessment, due to the unique characteristics and safety considerations
for driving training. The Candidate is continually assessed by Panthera’s Lead Instructors and
management staff during the course to ensure the Candidate is a good fit for Panthera’s training team
before they can teach a class and or have any contact with students. The Candidate then operates as an
Instructor Under Instruction (UI) of a Panthera Certified Instructor, assisting in teaching the class for at
least five (5) iterations. Before becoming a “Certified Panthera Instructor”, the Candidate must be
approved by a Panthera Instructor Review Board.

Our most recent Driving Assessment was conducted in February 2019, for 9 candidates (with only
four passing). The course covers all aspects of on-road, off-road and unimproved road driving and
instructional skills. The course was initially modeled on the Department of State instructor requirements

J. Description of Training: Provided high-risk driving (sedans, SUVs, armored vehicles), ambush attack and urban
scenario training for 38-42 DEA agents and support staff per class, who are deploying to high threat areas around the world.

We tailored the pace of training based on whether agents, support personnel or a combination of the two groups arrived for
the class, to ensure each student was challenged, but not overwhelmed, to reduce not only the risk of injury, but the risk of
not meeting the training objectives. Panthera was responsible for all program of instruction (POJ) design, training facilities,
and instruction for driving training. We have executed 8 iterations of this course and trained over 320 students.

Operationally, Tactical Driving training included sedans, SUVs and armored SUVs, on improved, unimproved and off-road
road surfaces. We taught vehicle dynamics and driving in hostile environments and ambush scenarios, driver down drills,
off-road and trail recovery techniques, individual attack scenarios, checkpoint scenarios, threat recognition, Pursuit
Intervention Techniques (PIT) and ramming recovery drills. We also conducted an JED Awareness class, including
classroom and actual explosives demonstrations, enabling the students to experience makeshift-IED blasts in real time.

After each driving or IED evolution, Panthera employees reset, clean, and re-supply the training venues for safety, to
minimize risk to personnel / equipment, and minimize downtime between runs.

“Since September 2018, Panthera Training LLC has supported five PREP courses, each consisting of 42 students.
Panthera has not only met all contractual requirements, but have gone above and beyond to ensure each student is
provided the best training, in the best environment possible. Panthera’s staff have been nothing short of

| accommodating and supportive to ensure each course is a success. Panthera’s training venue offers a wide range of

| training options, limited only to the client’s imagination. The Prep course consists of both DEA Special Agents and
support staff, which can cause some unique training challenges, as everyone does not possess the same level of
training. Panthera’s instructors have done an outstanding job ensuring all the students obtain the required skills and
encourage students to perform at a level many of the students may not have recognized they were capable of.
During the PREP course, I have personally had students approach me and comment about the high level of 7,

provided and the professionalism of the Panthera instructors and staff.”

We taught vehicle dynamics and driving in hostile environments and ambush scenarios, driver down drills, off-road and trail |
recovery techniques, individual attack scenarios, checkpoint scenarios, threat recognition, Pursuit Intervention Techniques
\(PIT) and ramming recovery drills. We ensure we have sufficient instructors and role players as “opposing forces” to provide realistic
ambush and attack scenarios.
